Andrew Cashner is one of the elder statesmen on a young Baltimore Orioles team that is clearly in a rebuilding phase. The Orioles are 15-36 after their seventh straight loss, an 8-6 setback to the Colorado Rockies in Denver on Friday night, and Cashner might be a valuable trade chip before July's deadline.

That doesn't mean the right-hander wants to leave the Orioles. Cashner, one of the few successful starters on the Baltimore staff, told The Athletic this week if he is dealt he would consider sitting out instead of pitching for a contender.

"I wish I had a no-trade clause," Cashner told The Athletic. "But it's all part of where you're at (in your career). And I think, once something comes, I'll have to sit down with my family and decide what's best for me."
